Loading Hash during testing using Fixtures

Hi all,

I am finally starting to use the testing framework that rails provides, however I have come across a problem that I can't work out.

Our model has a serialized hash as one of the members, and I can't work out the syntax in the YML file to populate the hash during testing.

Any suggestions?

Cheers Simon

Never mind

After stepping back and actually thinking about what I was trying to achieve, I worked it out.

For those of you following at home from a google search, here is how to do it.

one:      id: 1      options: {name1: value1, name2: value2}

Cheers Simon

one:      id: 1      options: {name1: value1, name2: value2}

This might be cleaner:

one:    options:      name1: value1      name2: value2

And note you don't need the id: 1 no more.
